I finally decided to go out of my shell this 2010 and meet bloggers. The reason I held back for more than a year was because of the lack of confidence. I guess I never thought of myself as a real blogger ti March this year. I had many invatations for eyeballs in the past but I thought i was not ready to run with the big boys. The first real breakthrough was last march when I met a few humor bloggers heading the invitation of Glentot.....

I will update this list from time to time as I am sure I was not able to link all of those people in the pictures. It has been a busy year meeting people here and there. And just when I thought its over, another blogger who I have been in constant interaction with for months accepted my invitation to spend New Year with us. After he told me that he might spend new year alone, I immediately invited him to join us in the celebration. I was surprised at myself. This is because every time we meet people, we open a part of ourselves to them, especially if we let them into our homes, we open not just our door but our life to them. I am glad he didn't refuse. To Emil--it was a pleasure meeting you dude and spending a good time with you.

It has been a year of going out and meeting bloggers, some to my amazement, some to my disappointment. But it has been fun and I could say that I really learned a lot from them not just in terms of blogging but about life in general. I realized that blogging in the Philippines has really exploded and I am glad to be part of the bandwagon.

To all those loggers who are holding back on meeting other people in the bloggosphere--- don't be shy. It's time you take the interaction outside that computer screen and enjoy the first hand experience. Like me, for sure you will always get surprised. There are a lot of great bloggers out there, fun bloggers and those who will have you starstrucked. Join the fun.
